From the "Well I'll Be!" category: Pluto's features could have names like Mt. Tardis and Vader Crater - CNET

Sunday net surfing yielded this little snippet. I found the original at Yahoo Science News...."The folks behind NASA's New Horizons released a list of the most popular suggested names for places on Pluto that shows sci-fi and fantasy fans are getting plenty of representation."I actually think this is cool. Why not use things that are current in culture as related to the SF Space-Time Genre? The last paragraph was this little gem............................."I'm kind of hoping that NASA doesn't discover any more planets at this point because we're going to run out of decent names somewhere down the line. I dread the day when NASA announces the discovery of a new planet named Hubbard and names its largest structure Mt. Michael Bay."Both quotes are from the author, Danny Gallagher.
The entire article with a cool CGI picture are at the link below.

Thought for the current times

"We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and then bid the geldings to be fruitful."--CS Lewis--

Political Correctness Explained

Political Correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
